Best Hair Salons in Garland, TX

The services Garland covers well

Barbering leads the list. Of the 59 salons here, 24 handle men's cuts, 24 do fades, and 20 offer beard trims — if you keep a short cut on a two-to-three-week cycle, you have real choice.

The women's side is nearly as deep: 19 salons offer women's cuts, 19 handle styling, and 19 do blowouts. Textured and protective work is solidly represented too — 14 salons list braids, 14 handle locs, and 14 offer protective styles. The thinnest categories are weaves and extensions, at 4 salons each, so plan further ahead if that's what you need.

Ratings and booking, by the numbers

Almost every listing comes with a track record: 98% of Garland's salons carry a public rating, and the citywide average is 4.72 stars. That's a high floor, which means the rating alone won't separate them — read a salon's recent reviews for the specific service you want, not just the star count.

On booking, 53% of these salons take online appointments. For the rest, call. A phone call is also your chance to ask what a booking form can't tell you: who on staff does the service you're after, and how far out they're scheduling.

How to use this directory

Start with the service, not the salon. The service tags on each listing tell you the work actually happens there — so narrow to salons that offer what you need before comparing anything else.

Then weigh ratings against review counts: a high rating built on hundreds of reviews tells you more than a perfect score on a handful. Check the card for online booking, and if a salon lists an Instagram, look at it — recent photos of real client work beat any description. For braids, locs, or a weave, message ahead with a photo of your hair and the style you want, so the salon can confirm timing before you book.
